Note, www/php4 package has many vulnerabilities...
Quick check which depends www/php4:
meta-pkgs/php4-extensions
net/php-yp
textproc/php4-domxml
textproc/php4-xslt
www/apc-gui
www/php-FastTemplate/Makefile
www/php4-apc/Makefile
I think it is better to switch effort from maintaining php4 to
multiple php5 (php 5.2, 5.3).
